4.-7. juuni oli lõpusündmus edukalt lõppenud FestiSkills Hunters koolitusprogrammile!
Viimase aasta jooksul arendasid Eesti ja Soome osalejad oma festivali- ja sündmuskorralduse oskusi läbi veebikoolituste, mentorluse, praktiliste ülesannete, õppevisiitide ning oma sündmusprojektide elluviimise.
Tagasiside koolitusel osalejatelt:
✅ 94% osalejatest olid programmiga rahul või väga rahul
✅ 88% hindas koolituse sisu asjakohaseks või väga asjakohaseks
✅ 94% usub, et programmis omandatud teadmised parandavad nende tulevasi võimalusi tööturul, ettevõtluses või kogukonnategevustes
✅ 100% osalejatest hindas Viljandi vaatlussündmust positiivselt
Programm aitas osalejatel omandada uusi teadmisi, praktilisi oskusi, enesekindlust ja väärtuslikke kontakte. Eriliselt hinnati mentorlust, praktilisi kogemusi päris sündmustel ning Eesti ja Soome vahelist koostööd.
🧡🧡🧡 Suur tänu kõigile osalejatele, mentoritele, koolitajatele ja partneritele, kes selle teekonna võimalikuks tegid! 🧡🧡🧡
Projekti kaasrahastab Kesk-Läänemere programm Central Baltic Programme / „Projekti FestiSkills Hunters toetab Siseministeerium ja SA Kodanikuühiskonna Sihtkapital“
